I've been reading in Revelation about what has been historically taught as the "Three sets of judgments" God has for the world; the Seals, the Trumpets, and the Bowls.
However, looking at it, besides the 6th Seal (great earthquake), could anything prior to that be considered a true judgment? Or, is God setting up the conditions for the true judgments to come (Trumpets and Seals).
If not, then the question of what is considered to be the "Tribulation" comes to mind, and then questions of pre/mid/post trib come to mind. If the Seals are not considered to be part of the judgment/trib, then we could be in the midst of them now and not mess with a pre-Trib person's escatology...
I'm not stating any of this as fact, but more thinking out loud. What do you think? (please don't scream heretic at me...it's just some thoughts I had)
